“Jason did an incredible job caring for my 18 month old lab mix, Mehdi. He provided text and picture updates throughout the boarding and with the help of his dog Timber, kept Mehdi entertained and happy. It rained almost the entire time I was gone, so no dog park visits, but there was enough space for Mehdi and Timber to play inside. Jason constantly provided Mehdi with treats, rawhides, and peanut butter filled kongs. Mehdi has occasional seizures, and while thankfully he didn't have any while I was away, Jason made sure he was well educated about what to do should it happen, which helped ease my mind. I highly recommend Jason and his buddy, Timber for when you are out of town.”


“I love how Sherry sent pictures and videos of our dog while he was staying with her. It definitely seemed like he had a great time! I felt very comfortable with leaving him in her hands. 100% recommend!”


“As always, Lori and Kelly did a great job watching our two dogs. This was the longest they’ve stayed with Lori, and we got regular updates and photos. Our pups were well cared for. Highly recommend them!”


“The stay was excellent. Great home and sitters. We were a bit concerned that our older and sometimes grumpy dog wouldn't get along with their dog Ivy. But Ivy was so relaxed and chill that it made the stay even better than we expected.”


“Anne Was very positive about Freddie and sent many photos through out the day. We did an overnight stay for our 9 month old lab puppy. Freddie did well. He will be staying for a week soon. Thanks so much”


“If we could rate more than 5 stars we would! It’s stressful leaving your pets behind while you go on a trip, but we knew they were in good care with the daily updates and photos we received. We would recommend them to anyone looking for pet care. Thanks Sydney and Michael!”


“Nova had great time staying with Isaac and his family for a long weekend. He and his daughter were wonderful caretakers of Nova! We received updates and pictures throughout the day, which is always nice! They were incredibly accommodating with our changing schedule. They spoiled her with treats and walks. We will definitely be reaching out again next time we need someone!”


“Robert was available short notice to watch Lily. He sent me pictures and updates of Lily throughout her stay, and even took her to the dog park numerous times! He went above and beyond to make sure Lily felt comfortable and well-cared for. I will definitely book with Robert again!”


“Trish was amazing with Murphy, our 11 month old Lab. We had never left him with anyone other than doggy daycare and she made sure we had all our questions answered before and during his Monday-Friday stay! She gave us lots of updates, pics and videos and were pretty sure he would have stayed there forever!! We will be using her every time she lets us :)”


“Great sitters! They included our dog in everything extra they did with their own dogs. They knew she loves to hike/explore, go on rides, play & she loves to cuddle and they did it all!! We would definitely recommend them as they treated her like their own.”


About: I grew up on a farm, so I've always been surrounded by animals and have developed a natural ability to care for them. This experience has taught me patience, responsibility, and a strong understanding of animal behavior. I’m not only comfortable with dogs of all ages but also have experience handling puppies and providing senior dog care. I work from home, which allows me to give your pet my full attention throughout the day. With a flexible schedule, I'll be the one taking care of your pet personally, ensuring they get plenty of walks, playtime, and cuddles. We have a dog at home and an unfenced yard, but we're just one block away from a dog park, so your pet will have plenty of opportunities for outdoor play and exercise. If needed, we can crate our dog to ensure safety and comfort during your pet's visit. We always prioritize the well-being of all pets in our care and will adjust our home environment as needed to meet your pet's needs.

“Mahvish and Syed were amazing in taking care of my dog! They spoiled her like she was their own - took her on walks, played with her, and took tons of photos for me of her having a great time. We will be back!”


“Kelly treated my dog as one of her own! She took him on walks, made him a special Sunday breakfast, and let him play in the kiddie pool with her 2 other dogs all weekend. I will absolutely be rebooking with her if I ever need boarding services in the future.”


About: I have been the go-to neighborhood dog sitter ever since I was in junior high. Now I live in Iowa City with my husband and field retriever, Oakley, and am ready to continue opening my home to your pets! I have experience with dogs of all sizes, ages, personalities, and energy levels. I work from home, so I am here all day for your pet. My typical routine with Oakley includes a lunch time walk and a post work hike at Hickory Hill. I’d love to bring your pup along for these adventures but can also cater to your pups individual needs/preferences and adjust as needed! We have a fenced in yard as well for the pups to run around in. I work full time from home, so I am able to attend to your dog throughout the day as needed. I typically play fetch or tug or something or the sort with my pup in the morning, take her for a walk ~1 mi walk over lunch, and for a 1-2 hour hike after work. I can adjust the level of activity as needed to match what you’re looking for! I have a fenced in yard (standard chain link so not suited for high jumpers) and an active pup for your dog to play with! I am comfortable crating your dog or leaving free roaming, whatever is your preference and your routine!

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 8 years old and have always considered myself a dog person. Caring for dogs has shaped my deep understanding of pet needs and behavior, making me especially attentive and compassionate as a sitter. I’m currently in school but only have class Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. My Monday and Fridays are completely free and am open to working Sunday's as well if need be. I provide plenty of care and affection to the dogs that come into my home. I want them to feel like it’s their own space and be happy and comfortable while their parents are away

“Did a trial night with Jayme for a longer stay and she was great. Asked good questions i had not thought of to make our dog fit in, very accommodating to him and his idiosyncrasies and extremely responsive to questions. Would for sure use again.”

Abigail G.
“Abby is not only a loving and responsible pet caregiver, but also a kind, trustworthy, and thoughtful person. She goes above and beyond to ensure pets feel happy, safe, and cared for. I could not recommend her more to watch after and care for your pets. Her gentle and loving nature makes animals instantly comfortable, and she goes above and beyond to ensure they are safe, happy, and well cared for. Anyone would be lucky to have Abigail look after their pets”
